shedding my skin
changing my ways
renewing my grin
setting my pace
*
sloughing the layers
encouraging growth
silencing nay sayers
taking control.
*
accept adaptation
escape dormmate stage
a stanch negotiation
by the turning a page
*
manifest healing
tend the scars on my skin
replace the old, peeling
so regrowth begins
*
turning the soil
planting the seeds
pruning the foilage
developing me
*
granting forgiveness
evaluating my goals
showing some kindness
mending the holes
*
beginning to like me
that face in the mirror
choosing to believe
there’s a reason Im here
*
taking this moment
making it mine
learning to own it
cherishing the time
*
swinging, though, hit or miss
striving for success
embracing the ecdysis
realizing true happiness
